Asymptotic tails of massive scalar fields in Schwarzschild background
We investigate the asymptotic tail behavior of massive scalar fields in Schwarzschild background. It is shown that the oscillatory tail of the scalar field has the decay rate of t−5/6 at asymptotically late times, and the oscillation with the period 2π/m for the field mass m is modulated by the long-term phase shift. These behaviors are qualitatively similar to those found in nearly extreme Rei...
متن کاملAsymptotic power-law tails of massive scalar fields in Reissner-Nordström background
We investigate dominant late-time tail behaviors of massive scalar fields in nearly extreme Reissner-Nordström background. It is shown that the oscillatory tail of the scalar fields has the decay rate of t−5/6 at asymptotically late times. The physical mechanism by which the asymptotic t−5/6 tail yields and the relation between the field mass and the time scale when the tail begins to dominate,...
متن کاملMassive Spin-2 fields of Geometric Origin in Curved Spacetimes
We study the consistency of a model which includes torsion as well as the metric as dynamical fields and has massive spin-2 particle in its spectrum. The massive spin-2 mode resides in the torsion, rather than in the metric. It is known that this model is tachyonand ghost-free in Minkowski background. We show that this property remains valid and no other pathologies emerge in de Sitter and anti...
متن کاملNovel Properties of Massive Higher Spin Fields
I outline a series of results obtained in collaboration with A. Waldron on the properties of massive higher (s > 1) spin fields in cosmological, constant curvature, backgrounds and the resulting unexpected qualitative effects on their degrees of freedom and unitarity properties. The dimensional parameter Λ extends the flat space m-line to a (m,Λ) “phase” plane in which these novel phenomena unf...
متن کاملGeometric Lagrangians for massive higher-spin fields
Lagrangians for massive, unconstrained, higher-spin bosons and fermions are proposed. The idea is to modify the geometric, gauge invariant Lagrangians describing the corresponding massless theories by the addition of suitable quadratic polynomials. These polynomials provide generalisations of the Fierz-Pauli mass term containing all possible traces of the basic field. No auxiliary fields are ne...
